Cave Story Coming To The 3DS

13th February 2011, 3:49pm

Studio Pixel and Nippon Ichi Software have announced that they will be bringing the critically acclaimed indie game Cave Story to Nintendo's upcoming 3DS console. Rather than being based off either the WiiWare or DSiWare version, the 3DS version will be made from scratch from the original PC version. While the game will still be played from a 2D perspective, character, weapon and environmental models will be 3D for the first time. There will be remixed versions of the original game's music, which will retain the distinctive retro sound. This marks the first time that Cave Story will be available at retail, the game has existed exclusively as a downloadable title since its creation. Cave Story is set to be released within the 3DS console's launch window in the U.S, with a PAL release hopefully coming soon after.
